Question

Tomas has a garden with a length of 2.45 meters and a width of 5/8 meters.Use benchmarks to estimate the area and perimeter of the garden.

Answer 1

The dimensions of the rectangle is 2.45 m by 5/8 m
thus the area will be:
A=length*width
A=2.45×5/8
A=1.53125 m²
Perimeter will be:
P=2(L+W)
P=2(2.45+5/8)
P=2(3.075)
P=6.15 m
